This invention relates to the class of stationery and pertainsparticularly to an eraser.

The primary object of the present invention is to provide an improvedtype of eraser designed to be carried upon the finger of the user.

Another object of the invention is to provide a finger eraser soconstructed that it will not turn or get out of proper position whilebeing worn.

The invention will be best understood from a consideration of thefollowing detailed description taken in connection with the accompanyingdrawing forming a part of the present invention with the understanding,however, that the invention is not confined to any strict conformitywith the showing of the drawing but may be changed or modified so longas such changes or modifications mark no material departure from thesalient features of the invention as expressed in the apended claim.

In the drawing z- Figure 1 is a View in side elevation of the fingerring eraser embodying the present invention;

Figure 2 is an edge view of the same;

Figure 3 is an edge view of the ring looking at the same as turnedthrough a quarter revolution from the position shown in Figure 1.

Referring more particularly to the drawing wherein like numerals ofreference indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views thenumeral 1 indicates the body of the present eraser, the same being, asshown, in the form of an annular rubber body designed to be placed upona finger preferably the indeX finger or the second finger at a pointadjacent the first joint.

At diametrically opposite points the ring body has formed integraltherewith the triangular erasing bodies 2, one edge of each beingdirected away from or radially of the ring body so that when the eraseris to be used the sharp edge of the body will be in proper position.

While of course, it is known that finger devices have been providedheretofore for carrying erasers the present device is an improvementover these former devices in that when in place upon the finger it willremain as originally positioned, whereas, in erasers of the type atpresent employed the single erasing body acts to work the ring about thefinger so that when the eraser is to be used the holding ring must beshifted so as to bring the eraser into proper position.

As is shown, the present eraser is also relatively broad so that thering will not out into the finger or otherwise be uncomfortable thereon.

Having thus described our invention, what we claim is An erasing deviceof the character described comprising a relatively broad finger band anda pair of oppositely directed eraser bodies mounted on the band, one ofsaid eraser bodies being adapted for use in erasing, and

the other of said bodies preventing the turnmg movement of the bandabout the finger. In testimony whereof we hereunto affix our signatures.
